  1. I've been suspicious of most of the approximates given throughout much of this and this 350 people somehow ballooning to over 100,000 in like 200 years or less has to be the worst of it. Like it ranges between 500 - 10,000 in different studies but those are the approximates for how much people you need for a population to keep enough population diversity to not collapse due to mutational melt down is beyond me, this has been documented in numerous animals though the difficulty and how unethical it would be to basically watch a human population collapse like that has limited human ones to mostly speculation. But 350 people is already below the minimum and that below minimum is already among a population that has experienced previous bootlenecks and inbreeding not to long ago from other mass killings and mass deaths so is already an unusually low in genetic diversity population and that 350 population would be split between several regions not together further lowering it to like an effective population of like 50 each. No way this isn't going to go into mutational melt down. And the equally ridiculous growth rate that it would take to on a continent with already relatively large and advantaged growing populations (Europe), a marginal population growing orders of magnitude faster is just ridiculous. Even the colonists of America through the same pre-colonial period and with all their advantages of a fertile land cleared before them by disease they still couldn't grow that fast. I guess what they say about 100 year population predictions being fiction is also true for 1000 year population estimates. I'll just assume "and alot of people died" anytime these extreme numbers are put up again. Edit. Can't get the actual link cuz youtube would deleted it but you'll have to find the paper with this "TABLE 2. JEWISH POPULATION ESTIMATES, BY MAJOR REGIONS - 1170-1995" Jewish population in Europe never dropped below half a million in this time period. This is just lies and slander. I at least thought the low numbers were based on something. That's if, even the earlier crusaders, video, every supposed massacre that I can confirm from elsewhere I'll just assume is a lie.
